You must be logged in under the exact same username account that registered any blog to access it.

Clicking this link should display all your blogs registered under the same username, including the hidden ones: https://dashboard.wordpress.com/wp-admin/index.php?page=my-blogs&show=hidden

If you do not see the blog here http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/ then
follow this guide > http://en.support.wordpress.com/my-blogs/#my-blogs-dashboard-visibility

If you have lost your log-in information you can visit https://en.wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword
If required click the "Need More Help" link and complete the form for account recovery.

I use wordpress for many purposes. I host a few blogs for free, which I can log into fine.

However, I just purchased a domain (http://www.jesseverettyoga.com/) through hostgator, which I am using wordpress to run. I created a lot of content the first time I logged in, but now cannot get back in. I registered with the same e-mail that I use for my free blogs, which is causing the trouble I think. When I am on jesseverettyoga.com and I try to log in as an administrator is tells me that my e-mail is not registered. There is no possible way I registered with a different e-mail, I only have one!!!! Also, when I am logged into wordpress I see all of my free blogs in the dropdown menu, but not my purchased blog, because I did two seperate downloads of wordpress I believe. I really have made a mess of things. Help, help, help!

Thanks so much.

I forgot my username/password and WordPress does not recognize my email address when I troubleshoot. I only have one email address and I was able to access the blog the day I created it, so it's obviously under that email. I have been trying for months to get on and have tried going through every part of troubleshooting the support has given me.

I thought perhaps I had used the same username for both blogs, but whilst my name and password will open my personal blog, it does not open the copywriter blog and when I try it says that I cannot access that dashboard.

I have tried entering all my email addresses but none are for that blog.

If you could give me an idea which email address I used then I can recover my password and delete the blog. I have emailed support at wordpress.com but I've not had any reply.

In short - I do not know what email address I used for this blog and as I don't know my username or password, I cannot access the blog.

If you don't have access to your account or forgot the password, you can request a new password by entering your email address here:

http://wordpress.com/wp-login.php?action=lostpassword

Please follow the instructions carefully. You'll receive two separate emails during the reset process, so make sure you read them both. If you don't receive the emails right away, check your spam folders as well. The confirmation emails can get caught in them sometimes :)

I have a free blog set up with wordpress.com. I want to delete it as I've now got my own website and so it doesn't pay to have duplicate sites.

I tried to log in to delete the blog. I've forgotten the username so I used all the emails I own in an attempt to reset the password. None worked.

I went onto an account recovery form which told me that my blog here http://lisavalentinecopywriter.wordpress.com/ does not exist and asked if I had a wordpress.org one instead.

WordPress are currently not accepting support forms except for paid subscribers.

I'm not sure what to do next. I've tried all the usernames I can think of, I've tried all my emails, I cannot get into the account and I cannot contact wordpress. I've also searched all my emails for the welcome email I would have received when I set the site up but nothing. The blog is only around 3 months old, if that.

Please can someone guide me on what to do? How can I get it deleted without having access? How can I contact WordPress?
